The spectrum of light from the moon should very strongly resemble the spectrum of sunlight. The reason is that any light from the moon started out from the sun. Any difference in their spectra is only due to the moon absorbing more of some wavelengths and less of others. But since the moon appears colorless gray, we don't expect any particular colors to be strongly absorbed, otherwise the moon would look to be the colors of the light that's left.

To test the performance of its tires, a car

Rom4ik [11]

The coefficient of static friction is 0.222

Explanation:

In order for the car to remain in circular motion, the frictional force must be able to provide the necessary centripetal force. Therefore, the car will start skidding when the two forces are equal:

$\mu mg=m\frac{v^2}{r}$

where the term on the left is the frictional force, while the term on the right is the centripetal force, and where

$\mu$ is the coefficient of static friction

m is the mass of the car

g is the acceleration of gravity

v is the speed of the car

r is the radius of the track

In this problem, we have:

r = 564 m

v = 35 m/s

$g=9.8 m/s^2$

And re-arranging the equation for $\mu$ , we can find the coefficient of static friction:

$\mu = \frac{v^2}{gr}=\frac{35^2}{(9.8)(564)}=0.222$

The velocity of sound apparatus is used in an investigation to determine the frequency of an unknown tuning fork. The temperatur

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

The relationship of the speed of sound, its frequency, and wavelength is the same as for all waves: vw = fλ, where vw is the speed of sound, f is its frequency, and λ is its wavelength.
